Rossi 2002 stats - 11 Wins, 7 poles, 15 podiums
Rossi 2003 stats - 9 wins, 9 poles, 16 podiums

Compared with

Stoner 2007 stats - 10 wins, 5 poles, 14 podiums

So I dont see how 2002 - 2003 was anymore exicting than 2007 was for example, in fact you could argue depending on your viewpoint that both were equally as dull, because 1 rider dominated. Just different ones...

*stats taken from wikipedia article(s)

I just think that no eletronics makes for a better spectacle, power sliding, wheel spins, smoking tyres, backing it in etc etc...
